Hanging on the beautiful flower
Hanging tightly every hour
Searching for the nectar, very sweet
That you devour and you eat
As you fly over natures land
Guided by creations hand
Which does take you, far and wide
Finding treasures, that do hide
Hanging tightly to every flower
Tasting beauty, every single hour
As you roam the skies of blue
That stretch wide in front of you
another beautiful Juniper Shieldbug, but yet again in Leylandii - have only found this species in Leylandii this year despite looking in many other locations where it has been found before.
There were several of these tiny critters exploring the garden this morning. Shot at 1:1, with 12 mm extension tube.
Zelus longipes, I think.
Colorful moth, seen in the Vintgar Gorge :)
The scarlet tiger moth (Callimorpha dominula) is a colorful moth belonging to the tiger moth subfamily, Arctiinae. This species is present in most of Europe and in the Near East (Turkey, South Caucasus and northern Iran). These moths prefer damp areas (wet meadows, forests, river banks, fens and marshes), but they also can be found on rocky cliffs close to the sea. The imagines are active during the day in June and July. The caterpillars are polyphagous. They mainly feed on comfrey (Symphytum officinale), but also on a number of other plants.

Kolorowy motylek wypatrzony w wąwozie Vintgar :)
Krasopani poziomkówka (Callimorpha dominula) – motyl z rodziny mrocznicowatych (Erebidae) i podrodziny niedźwiedziówkowatych. Występuje w Europie i Azji. W Polsce spotykany na całym obszarze kraju. Preferuje środowiska ciepłe, wilgotne i prześwietlone lasy łęgowe, lasy liściaste i mieszane z obfitym podszytem, rosnące na nizinach, pogórzach i w średnio wysokich górach. Gąsienice żywią się głównie liśćmi i pąkami roślin, na których wyrządzają nieraz znaczne szkody. Dorosłe motyle pojawiają się od połowy czerwca do końca lipca.
Here is another butterfly of the beautiful Papiliorama (Kerzers, Switzerland). I am particularly happy to have found this one which is not that easy to see because it's transparent and tiny. However, this perticular specimen was kind enough to stay at the same place for about 20 minutes, so it was possible to come back again and again to get different lights (even if, in the end, I decided to process the first shot).
As far as I know, it is a "greta oto".
